High Hopes Lyrics by Emahnee Vee

2023

Intro speech:
I can tell you've never known, what love is
I can be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you put into me
These energies ain't theory
Be real or respect the disappointment
[Chorus]
I can tell you've never known what love is
The way you speak I cannot reach a deep consciousness
And common sense told me to let this be an accomplishment
'Cuz every time I see the truth, I'm glad I never married you x2
I'm glad I never said........ Yeah
{Verse}
Okay
First I need things first, I had to put me there
Mood swings, I did that
I had to keep my hair
Can't let the crown fall
Since my heart been bare
Thought I'd partnered
To a King baby
Madge Sinclair
Instead I'm Living Single, knowing
I just been too rare
Instead I'm playing with my talents
Like them toys in the shed
Lil me holding bears
But I ain't get no TED
Asking for the next time
If there is a next time
Praying for the next slide, baby
Hold my hand
Know it's up to me too
To get a good romance
Out all the drama
Got baby momma'd
'Afore I knew the lingo
Growing up to represent
Statistics before I'd mingle
Pushing through these pickled pickles
Sayonara cannot miss you
Laying Comfy on ma posturepedic
Cannot get a tissue
Goddess waiting for a God
A mortals been a deaded issue
I'm painting, you just did your part
I'm praying hands don't never kiss you
[Chorus]
I can tell you've never known what love is
The way you speak I cannot reach a deep consciousness
And common sense told me to let this be an accomplishment
'Cuz every time I see the truth, I'm glad I never married you x2
I'm glad I never said........ Yeah
2nd Verse: Nina Simone's Interview
- "Just a feeling, it's just a feeling. It's like how do you tell somebody how it feels to be in love, how are you going to tell anybody who has not been in love, how it feels to be in love, you cannot do it to save your life. You can describe things, but you can't tell 'em, but you KNOW it, when it happens. That's what I mean by freedom. I've had a couple of times on stage when I really felt FREE. Now that's somethin' else, that's really somethin' else. Like all, like, like- I'll tell you what freedom is to me. No FEAR. I mean really, no Fear. If I could have that half of my life, no fear. Lots of children have no fear, that's the closest way I could describe it, that's not all of it; but it is somethin' to really, really feel....."
